Hello Michal To avoid any problems with glst (100% cpu usage on growing db, db corrupted, ....) I use a scheduled batch script (once a day) to maintain xmail related tools (av updated, glst maintenance, ...).
The glst batch look like this (GlstCleanUp.cmd) : >>--------------------------- @echo off pushd glst glst --cleanup del glstdump.lst dbdump --dbfile glst.dbm --output glstdump.lst del glst.dbm dbload --dbfile glst.dbm --input glstdump.lst popd ---------------------------<< For infos, the general batch look like this : >>--------------------------- @echo off C: cd \XMailTools rem **** Stop Xmail to avoid filters/processes to access files net stop xmail rem **** AV Update (clamav, ...) call ClamAvUpdate.cmd rem **** Glst database cleanup/reload call GlstCleanUp.cmd rem **** Sync Xmail databases with SQL databases .. .. rem Restart XMail net start xmail exit ---------------------------<< With this method (once per day) I resolved glst blocked processes definitively ...
